Hi people

I've set up a wireless network before for 5 people - it was telewest broadband and I still have the Linksys .g router and usb network adapter (router model WRT54GS). Good folk on this forum helped me to this, and it worked wonders.

Now back at home, we just got Virgin Broadband, which uses a Speedtouch 330 USB ADSL modem. I want to connect another desktop using my old Linksys hardware, but the modem uses a USB lead to this PC and so cannot connect to the ethernet ports on the computer.

What can I do? I was hoping there would be some sort of USB to Ethernet adapter available. Could anyone tell me my options? I'd rather not have to leave one computer on all the time

(There is an ethernet port on this connected PC and it also has a ASUS wireless network card.)

Cheers
